Dental Hygiene Collective

We've partnered up with Wicked White, a Canadian, female-owned company founded by a fellow Dental Hygienist. Following a thorough exam, we can help you achieve your brightest, healthiest smile in just a little over an hour using Wicked White in-office whitening products. After a single office visit, you'll leave with dramatically whiter teeth minus the hassles of impressions or whitening trays, and with reduced sensitivity. Our in office whitening appointments include a Guided Biofilm Therapy “Refresh” and a take home whitening pen. We also offer Wicked White take home whitening kits (complete with LED light) and take home pens for purchase.

We conduct a thorough oral cancer screening for all of our clients at no additional charge. DHC utilizes the Velscope, as well as and intra and extraoral exam to assess our clients for any risk factors or suspicious areas.

SDF is an exciting addition to the dental world. In addition to being a powerful desensitizer it is also useful to halt the cavity process. When decay is caught in its early stages your Dental Hygienist may be able to paint on an application of Silver Diamine Fluoride and stop the process before it has a chance to dig deeper into the tooth. This product does not require freezing or prepping of the tooth. This is particularly beneficial for young children who have a challenging time in the dental chair, as well as those who have complex restorations that may have slight breaches in their margins.

At DHC our primary focus is on disease prevention. We use a flowable composite material to seal off deep grooves in your teeth to reduce the likelihood of harmful bacteria burrowing in and causing decay.

At DHC we are able to take any necessary x-rays and complete a complimentary oral health assessment in conjunction with your hygiene appointment. Should any restorative treatment be required your dental hygienist will assist you with a referral to the appropriate specialist and forward any x-rays required by email.

The Registered Dental Hygienists at DHC have extensive experience with scaling and rootplaning. All of our dental hygiene appointments will include guided biofilm therapy at no additional charge. We also offer various numbing agents should you require them for your comfort, however GBT is shown to significantly decrease patient discomfort during the appointment.

GBT is an integral part of your practice and incorporated into your appointment at no additional cost. The ultrafine erythritol powder gently clears away plaque and decontaminates your mouth of unwanted biofilm, followed by the piezon which uses a gentle vibration and warm water to remove harder deposits, and a final refine with hand instrumentation.

Dental Hygienists in Alberta are able to diagnose dental x-rays and aid clients in making informed decisions when a treatment referral is required. DHC hygienists will conduct a complimentary assessment at each of your dental hygiene appointments. We will collaborate with your existing dentist, or if you don't have one we are happy to refer you to one that shares your values.

We use Xpur Crystal to treat your sensitive teeth. Crystal applies easily to quickly reduce your sensitivity. No freezing required.
